This sepia photo reminds me of the photos I use to see in history books as a child about the Dust Bowl in the 30'ds.The people abandoned their homes and moved on with their hopes for a brighter tomarrow.

Not for the sepia tone, but for the composition and your love of old barns or houses...

"Violence is the last resort of the incompetent" (I. Asimov)
Thanks Lucy&Pierre.You are right about the abandoned buildings.I think Samatar was right when he said I like to photograph places that get little attention and bring them to light.

Very thought provoking is my take on your images as I have sort of hinted at before. I agree with the others about the rich sepia and the great Joe style composition. Great image Joe and your porfolio is overflowing with great photography, especially the recent sepia images:-)

Nice touch, Joseph! Yes, the sepia really ads to the 30s feel of abandonment and dispair in the Dust Bowl era. This is one house a coat of paint ain't gonna fix!

Wow its so homey. Didn't even look like a sepia at first, a 10/10 for perfectly capturing the ruggedness of summer...
